She Was Abandoned By A Hateful Father But Grew Up To Be A Famous Actress
Three years later they had a daughter in 1979 and they spent a number of years together happily. Unfortunately, Goldie was not faithful and they got divorced in 1981.
Later, he would reveal in an interview that she was not very committed to their relationship. He said: “Goldie was having affairs, [and] she told me pretty much on our wedding night that she wanted an open marriage, that she couldn’t imagine being faithful to one man for the rest of her life.
“I wanted a traditional marriage, but Goldie couldn’t settle. Eventually, I moved out.”
In 1983, Goldie started dating actor Kurt Russell. They met previously in 1968 but it wasn’t until 1983 that they eventually allowed their relationship to blossom. They had a son, who was born in 1986.
There were some adjustments associated with the blended family. Goldie’s daughter, however, recognized the love that her mother had for Kurt, and that meant a lot to her.
There were also a lot of feelings of abandonment associated with the first marriage. Her son said that the father distanced himself gradually from the family. He even spoke about Kurt in a Father’s Day post, saying: “It doesn’t really matter which one of these men is my father. My pa stepped in when I was six and made me the man I am today.”
In the meantime, her ex-husband felt betrayed and accused her of poisoning the children against him. There was a lot of tension, but Kate and Oliver would like to heal from the past.
Kate went on to be one of the most famous actresses of our time. When you look at her, you might not see the pain that is in her past but it does exist. We’re just thankful that she was able to overcome it to the extent that she has.
